2019 Audi e-tron Power Train

When vehicle is in drive or reverse, it rolls forward and backwards when no throttle is applied (as if in neutral), vehicle hit a structure because it rolled back at a rapid pace due to an incline. Audi needs to implement a feature to prevent the vehicle from rolling when at a near stop and the vehicle is in drive or reverse.

Vehicle freely rolls forward and backwards in drive and reverse without any type of automatic brake hold function to prevent the vehicle from rolling the opposite direction of currently selected gear.

Vehicle rolls freely in drive and reverse, very dangerous because it is difficult to control on hills and steep driveways. The vehicle will roll in either direction regardless of selected gear with no safety system to keep the vehicle in "hold".

Vehicle dangerously rolls backwards on driveway when in drive, the vehicle does not brake hold when in drive or reverse, it will roll either direction freely as if in neutral. Audi needs to release a software update to hold vehicle when rolling opposite direction of selected gear.

Vehicle brake hold does not function as expected, the car will roll in either direction regardless of what gear is selected. If you don't pay attention and are on an incline, the vehicle will roll freely backwards even though you are in drive! Audi does have a brake hold function but it only works when you fully depress the brake pedal and come to a stop. As soon as you press the accelerator to move forward, the car will begin to roll backwards if you are not constantly on the accelerator. Very dangerous!

The suv has an issue where when you are in drive or reverse, the vehicle can roll backwards of forwards when the accelerator is released and the vehicle is not at a complete stop. For example, coming up an inclined driveway, if you come to a near stop to wait for the garage door to open, but release the accelerator pedal the vehicle will roll backwards rapidly even though it is in drive. The same happens in reverse. The car has brake hold, but it only works when you come to a complete stop and hold the brake pedal for more than a second. If you press the accelerator pedal briefly, the brake hold will release and the car will start to roll backwards or forwards depending on the incline. The gear selection (reverse/drive) does not matter, the vehicle will roll as if in neutral.
